I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mohammed. Mohammed is 25 years old and before this worked in a market and a house goods store. At the beginning of the war his house was bombed and he lost 22 members of his family who were sheltering there. He is trying to save the survivors.

Scrapping the #TwoChildLimit will be transformative for children across the UK.
This was the right decision, and it will bring huge relief to families who’ve been unfairly pushed into poverty by this harmful policy.

Our mattresses are full of water, and so are our clothes.

How can a human live in safety when the sky above them is not a sky, but a threat?

Or do we still need a kind of courage we keep searching for beneath the rubble?
